Asher’s Art Gallery (Mondays)

Hello fellow art lovers! It’s Monday, and my gallery is open once again! I hope you guys are ready for some great pieces. Now, have fun exploring my gallery!

The King’s Museum by Rene Magritte 1966 oil on canvas

This is a very fascinating work by “Surrealist”, Rene Magritte. We see the outline of a male figure with a bowler hat. His facial features appear to be hovering in midair. We also see a serene, mountainous range that makes up his body. I believe that the irony of the piece ties it all together. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this piece in the comments’ section below.

Untitled by Larry Carlson 2015

This is one of my favorite works by “Computer Guru”, Larry Carlson. The work is a brilliant recreation of a graffiti-covered truck. It’s splashed with an explosion of color, and the paint appears to be melting. I adore the blend of realizing photography with computer generated images. I would love to hear what you guys think about this piece in the comments’ section below.
